HC Deb 16 March 1925 vol 181 cc1865-6W
Sir H. BRITTAIN

asked the Postmaster-General whether he is now able to inform the House as to the position of the site selected for the Beam wireless station for a communication with South Africa?

Viscount WOLMER

A site near Bodmin for the sending station for the beam service with Canada has been placed at the disposal of the Marconi Company, and it is anticipated that a site near Bridgwater for the corresponding receiving station will be available in the course of a few days. The same sites will be used for the stations for communication with South Africa, and an order for these stations will be given as soon as official information is received concerning the erection of corresponding stations in South Africa.
